The Tale of the Void Emperor

Currently, Athan was inside the Demonic Tree's branch as he absorbed the wild chaotic power to get wild chaos force.

His essence core has filled up to ninety percent after continuously doing this for four months.

After Shiromi and Athan discussed the situation four months ago, They continued their training.

Meanwhile, Shiromi and others had no luck as they still couldn't break through to the Orderic catastrophe.

At this time, Shiromi and others had given up on breakthrough in this demonic tree as they went outside.

" What do we do now, Sister Shiromi? " Cait asked before saying, " Athan is still inside, so...Do we move without him or? "

" We'll wait. I asked Athan, and he said that he only need twelve days to saturate his current essence core and become a mid-grade Master order elite. "

Hearing that, Everyone nodded as they had no problem with it.

Though, one of them spoke with doubt, " Close to five months already passed, so...This CPD might disappear anytime now. "

Shiromi waved her right hand while shaking her head, " It's ok. Consider Athan's priorities as important as mine. I will make a breakthrough sooner or later. If not in this CPD and in another one. "

" Well, If you say so, Mrs. Shiromi. "

They already thought of Athan as their important member and a very powerful ally. But they were still surprised that Shiromi placed Athan in the same position as her.

" But Athan's way of training is really...wild, hahaha. "

" Yeah. He was taking in those powerful chaotic flames in large quantities to progress while ignoring the injuries. I definitely think that he has a unique body physique. That's the only explanation. "

" Is that true, Mrs. Shiromi? "

" It's true. Anyway, Now go and patrol the area. "

...

Twelve days soon passed, and Athan had finished saturating his core.

Inside the Demonic Tree, Athan opened his eyes, ' Hmmm...I should learn to split my subconsciousness and primary consciousness while doing this training too. But I need to do that slowly. If my subconsciousness messed up and I died while absorbing the chaotic powers, It would suck. '

To comprehend and grasp the order, He needed his primary consciousness. But he also needed it when trying to absorb wild chaotic power, guiding it towards his Chaos Grinder and then infusing the producing wild chaos force into the core.

To make his subconsciousness do all that stuff would be tough. But he can practice this on weaker portions of wild chaotic powers.

Anyway, He had reached the middle-stage Tier-3 order base as his second leaf of Four leaves clover became fully vivid. So, he was only three steps away from achieving his goal.

High-stage Tier-3 order base

Peak-stage Tier-3 order base

And then finally breaking through to Orderic Catastrophe so that he can use the black-gold card of Chaos Monolith Hills.

' I still have four years...As per plans made by Shiromi and Me, If I managed to get through this ordeal, We'll go on a journey with Arcued and Tealery to find chaos phenom dimensions to train. '

He then looked at his soul, and the black and white orbs on his soul's left and right sides as a grin crept onto his face while his eyes filled with maddening gleam.

Athan wore his new set of clothes since the previous one already burned and went outside.

Seeing Athan coming out, Shiromi and the group once again departed. They started moving on the east side and didn't continue to go in Demonic Tree's direction.

After flying for five hours, They took a break for thirty-minute before continuing.

They flew for another four hours before they finally found a location of another powerful wild chaotic power source.

They saw a burning mountain and clouds on top of the mountain of dark yellow flames with bright green sparks.

But they also discovered a group of people training on the mountain while sitting in a formation.

They sat at the peak of this eight thousand meters tall mountain with one thousand meters wide range.

Shiromi frowned and said, " I couldn't sense them with my soul radar because the mountain's chaotic field interfered with it. Additionally, that formation is quite good as it completely contains their aura and powers. "

Cait nodded with narrowed eyes as she said with a pout, " Yeah. They are sitting right on top of the mountain. Also, They haven't put one or two people on the lookout, and everyone in their group seems to be training. Otherwise, Sister Shiromi could sense them just like she previously discovered two people at the Demonic Tree. "

Athan rubbed his fist as he said with a smile, " Get ready for battle. They have already sensed our presence. "

He then activated Chaos matrix and turned one side into lightning Dust and the second side into Aegis Starwood.

With that, He turned his legs into Lightning dust while his upper body into Aegis Starwood as he flew towards the mountain top.

" I'll be going first. "

Shiromi and others were slightly speechless, but they were familiar with Athan's style.

" Here's the plan. We will move forward after ten seconds but still stay behind Athan. Seeing us, The enemy will definitely come to us on their own, so Athan will be able to clear them faster with their numbers decreasing. "

" Look. They are a total of twelve people. They seem to be from Warrior's valley. "

After ten seconds, They also flew towards the mountain top where Athan and the people of Warrior's valley were almost in the clash range.

The people of Warrior's valley saw one man coming towards them as they prepared their order techniques and attacked directly.

Athan also summoned his Exo-frame: Thorn mail form and waved both of his hands in vertical slashing motion as he released two Sumireas Slash.

But before their attacks could reach each other, An intense rumbling sounded across the vast space of this dimension before the wild chaotic powers started to dissipate.

Everyone felt a suction force as they were violently pulled into multiple vortexes that appeared near them.

Athan hurridly deactivated his chaos matrix, chaos traits and conserved his aura and power as he got pulled into the vortex.

Finally, Athan was sucked into a vortex that spawned near him while Shiromi and the group separated into three-part as three vortexes appeared near them and sucked them in.

The same thing happened with the people of Warrior's valley.

...

Athan looked around and felt that something was wrong, ' So there's really a formation. And I can't sense its border...which means I am far from it. Hmmm...If I run towards the border, It will become clear that I killed Fen. Even If I reach there, I likely won't be able to break it in a short time. '

Athan rapidly thought about what to do and decided to slowly walk towards the opposite direction of the border of this formation as he felt that someone might arrive here anytime soon. He also released his order base aura by releasing some order force.

Indeed, After just five seconds, He saw a man appearing in front of him.

He glanced at Athan and was surprised to see that he was just mid-stage Master order elite.

' Huh...which organization sent in such a burden inside? '

Though he didn't think much after that and enveloped Athan within a thin-veil-like water bubble.

Athan acted panic as he purposefully stuttered, " T-this sir, W-what is g-going on? Where a-are you tak-ing me to? "
